Not really hungry at all - which isn't like me lol x

please-let-me-be-lucky

I've been feeling really ill since last night - sick, dizzy, shaky, headaches, pins and needles in my hands and a weird numbness from elbow to wrist. Called to midwife for advice and she said I had to see a Dr asap. Just been to see doc who thinks I have a viral infection and I just have to rest and drink as much water as possible. Glad I went though, it's put my mind at rest knowing my blood pressure etc is all fine.

I've got a scan date!!!!!!!!!!!!! 30th August at 3:40

We're going to have to come back from our camping trip a littler earlier than expected to make the appointment but as long as I get to see a live baby this time it'll be worth it.

Also got my hospital consultation for the 10th September so I've asked Mum to come with me. I know they want to have me under supervision with cannula's in but I'm still going to fight for as much freedom as I can.

Re being shattered - I'm like a half-charged battery most days, just no energy at all. I managed to get to toddler group yesterday morning but the afternoon was a bust and I turned DS into a zombie with cars2.

Aw claire poor you. Can you mash it in a spoon of jam like when you were a kid or does that seem even worse?

I'm feeling really sickly tonight too. This afternoon I was really craving DS2's cheese and onion pombear crisps so gave in and snaffled a bag in about 5 seconds, thoroughly enjoying them! Tonight just the thought that I ate them makes me feel ill and I keep retching. I can smell them strongly in my imagination, bleugh. Very strange.

I just didn't bother in the end as knew it would come back up, but have taken one this morning.

I'm the same asked DH to cook something for me 2 nights ago & now the thought of that same thing makes me feel sick just thinking about it!

Knackered with a sore back today. Got my mw appt in 20minutes - excited!
Swaying between being starving until about 4pm and then not fussed at all until the next day currently.

Need to pack for my hols too - think I'll take my notes with me just as a precaution :-)

I'm the same, don't really fancy eating anything, but definitely need to. Last night I'd defrosted chicken for tea. Oh wanted fajitas, my stomach wasn't into that! So I ended up with a sad grilled chicken breast! Couldn't be doing with any spice or flavouring on it at all.
Think that was why I was so bad (headache as well as sickness) on Wednesday.
Keeping me going at the moment is a couple of bites (forced) of toast before I leave for work. Some belvita breakfast biscuits through the morning. Then a plain bland sandwich/jacket potato for lunch.

Eagerly waiting to hear about my scan! Feeling impatient!!

please-let-me-be-lucky hope you feel better soon.

lannie pinkpanther yep im shattered too! Been in bed by 9pm most nights which is v early for me!

I wake up tired and thirsty but generally okay. I then feel very hungry throughout the day and get really bad backache. I'm a little nauseous when I eat lunch but that improves but I hit a wall of tiredness that makes working almost impossible. I feel dreadfull on the train home with backache, tiredness, feeling faint and more nauseous. I then want to lie down for the whole evening and don't fancy eating anything. I eat because I should and then it gives me terrible indigestion and reflux. I go to bed and feel shortchanged by my evening.


I feel for my husband as he only get to see the tired, sick and grumpy me.

MW appt went good, Got my first Bounty pack and the voucher to pick up the mum to be one.
Lots of quality info although the midwife is being shunted to cover a new practice so it won't be her anymore :-(

We have to call up on either Tuesday or Wednesday next week to book our scan, I'll be in Belgium but I'm still going to call and get us booked in.

MW assured me everything seems tickety boo, reminded me to keep eating little and often and drinking plenty. Said I should be fine with paracetamol so will be able to take something for cramps/headaches now!

Hi

Do you mind if I join you.

Got my BFP yesterday, reckon I'm 4+3 with my first pregnancy. Doesnt feel real and I dont feel any different at all.

I've been taking Folic Acid and had just started taking inositol - should I stop this now. Picked up some Pregnacare Vits and started them - I'm all new to this so if I should be doing anything else any advice is welcome.

Hi Debs, welcome! I too am still in shock & struggling to believe it as still got very few symptoms..

Sorry to all the girls who are feeling rotten! If anything my appetite has decreased, although I'm not experiencing any nausea yet.. The main thing I've noticed is i've gone from being a biscuit munching, coffee swigging chocoholic to just wanting fruit fruit fruit!! So considering that I was also quite partial to the odd (large) glass of vino & a cigarette pre-pregnancy I am thinking being pregnant may be very good for my health! :rotfl:
